Always wanted to learn a language while in school but never managed to fit the courses into my class schedule. They're probably the ONLY regrets I actually have! Hopefully those reading this take these tips to heart!! - Carolann from One Modern CoupleOne Modern Couplehttp://onemoderncouple.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-766936635990361895.post-19445421082173480402015-07-25T01:40:13.458-04:002015-07-25T01:40:13.458-04:00This is a really great article and I 100% agree wi...This is a really great article and I 100% agree with everything. Coming from a European country - Slovakia, I was lucky enough to have free education, and after graduating high school, Ive decided to to study foreign languages (Polish and Chinese) in a neighboring country (Czech Republic). And this gave me opportunities to study later in Poland and China where I just finished my masters. Traveling, studying abroad, meeting new people and cultures and speaking many languages taught me so much and made me a better person!<br />I feel like this is quite common in Europe, since the countries are very close together and we have many opportunities to study abroad, however people are still very hesitant, even though most of the time its all free and you even get stipend. <br />I hope every year more and more people will follow these advice and will explore the world - that is the only way to learn properly about other countries, people, culture, religions... :)<br /><br /><br />Happy travels<br />DankaDankanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-766936635990361895.post-54995838684646431742015-07-25T00:53:01.207-04:002015-07-25T00:53:01.207-04:00Can only agree with a lot of those!

While the situation is different in college in France a few of those points still apply for us.<br />I'm so glad I decided to focus on languages when I was younger and that I pushed myself to get an internship in Japan... that got me the push I needed to keep on going and helped me find what I wanted in life.Marie-Carmen The Orient Excesshttp://www.orientexcess.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-766936635990361895.post-40704028934349920402015-07-24T23:52:18.445-04:002015-07-24T23:52:18.445-04:00I wish someone had given me this advice so many ye...I wish someone had given me this advice so many years ago.
